The Wicker Man Trailer

////
The trailer's arrived for Unnecessary Remake #3017, The Wicker Man starring Nic Cage.

Watch the trailer here.

Sigh. The original is about as terrific as they come (Christopher Lee in his prime), but... maybe this'll be... tolerable? Is that asking too much?

It does have the super-duper-wonderful Ellen Burstyn, AND it's directed by Neil LaBute (In The Company of Men, Nurse Betty)... so that adds a level of intrigue that otherwise would be missing. But, watching the trailer without sound as I have to do here at work, has left me mostly unimpressed.

--- On a sidenote, Blogger's being a real See-You-Next-Tuesday today, and isn't letting me add images the correct way, so all the wonderful screengrabs I made from the trailer are KAPUT, for now. If Blogger maybe decides to function some time in the next lifetime, I'll throw 'em up. So to speak.

Here are a few screengrabs:
